Solution: Count Subarrays With Fixed Bounds
Explore how to count fixed-bound subarrays within an array by applying the two pointers technique. This lesson teaches a linear time method to identify subarrays containing both minK and maxK without invalid elements, improving efficiency over brute-force approaches.

Statement
Given an integer array, nums, and two integers minK and maxK, return the number of fixed-bound subarrays.
A subarray in nums is called a fixed-bound subarray if it satisfies the following conditions:
The smallest value in the subarray equals
minK.The largest value in the subarray equals
maxK.
Note: A subarray is a contiguous sequence of elements within an array.
